Spice saw the internist yesterday. He did a Bile Acid test along with an ultrasound. We should have the results of the Bile Acid test Thursday afternoon. I can't stand the waiting!!
The ultrasound showed that her liver was the same size as her gall bladder....that's way too small!!
She has me worried sick. It seems that she gets worse everyday...very lethargic and I've seen her head 'tick' a few times Monday night and yesterday once. We were supposed to leave today for SC for a wedding, but I just can't leave her. Although she would be with me mom, I just wouldn't be able to forgive myself if something happened to her while I was gone. I thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers.
One more thing so that I can vent with those who understand...
My Vet (not the one I saw yesterday) told me a month ago when we originally had her blood drawn for the vomiting (only sign at the time) said (over the phone, I never saw the papers) that her ALT (one liver value) was [B]slightly[B] high. Now, when the range is supposed to be somewhere between 10 and 40 something, don't you think that 900 something is not just slightly high?????
When I saw the paperwork and went over it with the internist yesterday I thougtht I was going to spit fire. I new over a month ago that something was wrong with my baby and since my vet recommended that I wait 4-6 weeks to redraw blood and see where things were then because her ALT was only
slighty high, I thought I was going to spit fire. If I had known it was 10 times higher than it was supposed to be, I would have taken her to see the internist a month ago and she never would have reached the point of showing some neurological signs....GGGRRRRRRR I will be switching vets!! Unfortunately I have been going to this vet all of my life, but this was the last straw!
